Seasons Greetings!

As we reflect on a year of growth, connection, and support, we are delighted to share the winner of our 2024 Christmas competition. This year, the honour of featuring as our Christmas message goes to Lewis Hingerton, age 15.

Lewis used his eyegaze technology and 3D Paint to create an image that captures his vision of what Christmas means to him: a scene filled with warmth, joy, and togetherness. His creativity and skill remind us of the incredible ways assistive technology can empower individuals to express themselves and share their perspectives with the world.

At access: technology, we embrace the diversity of the people we support, recognising and respecting the many different ways this season is celebrated. Whatever this time of year means to you, we hope it brings peace, comfort, and joy.

From all of us at access: technology, we wish you a happy holiday season and a wonderful New Year!

Sing & Sign at Christmas

My favourite part of the week is a Tuesday afternoon, where I run a British Sign Language (BSL) Sing and Sign club for children at a local primary school on a voluntary basis. This special after-school activity is a place where we not only explore music but also learn BSL, creating a truly inclusive environment that celebrates communication in all its forms. access: technology provides the materials (including biscuits!) and t-shirts for the children to wear, helping to create a sense of belongi
